Oleksandr Zinchenko - groin

Nottingham Forest defender Oleksandr Zinchenko (28) was forced off in tears after suffering a groin injury during Thursday night’s Europa League clash against Porto. The Ukrainian international, currently on loan from Arsenal, was substituted just before half-time.

Zinchenko appeared emotional as he left the pitch with the medical team, covering his face with his shirt after feeling discomfort following a sprint.

The extent of Zinchenko’s injury will be assessed in the coming days, but early signs suggest a potential groin strain. (Source: The Mirror).
